Just arrived at the #GrowingColourTogether Symposium with Woven in Kirklees at the Barbara Hepworth Building, Queensgate, Huddersfield, HD1 3DH

Went to a fantastic workshop at the weekend run by Jane #growingcolourtogether I learnt to use natural foliage and fauna to create the most beautiful dyes. Can't wait to get our flower bed planted this Spring with the invaluable help from our Gardening Club. natalie walton
